I may be wrong but I think Hedo Turkoglu is the guy not so appealing to GS....

The Warriors are pursuing Andrew Bogut. Three-team deal with ORL and NOH has been discussed as Warriors' back-up plan:

Great, so we're the back up plan smh.
Why can't we hop in the 3 team deal with MIL?? We can take Ellis and Capt. Jack.


Without a commitment from Howard, you sure you want to do that? I can imagine Otis Smith being against it

Every trade the Magic does is contingent upon Dwight's commitment. Trading Ryan and JJ in the reported 3 team deal wouldn't make sense if that wasn't there.

You fail to realize Kaman is an expiring. The Warriors are looking for a center. In what way does Anderson or JJ satisfy that need. Anderson would have trouble getting minutes on the Warriors because Lee is eating up almost 37mpg at PF, JJ would not replace Monta's production at SG either, and Kaman would be free to go in the off season. In essence, it's like trading Monta for JJ and the only positive that comes out of this is possibly shedding Biedrins contract. But the Warriors are notorious for over paying mediocre talent in free agency due to not being able to attract top tier free agents. So shedding salary may look good on paper, but probably wouldn't work out in the long run anyway...


talent wise its to much for ellis, i already agreed that the pieces might not be the best fit..rumors are suggesting that GS wouldn't receive those players so it doesn't matter, kaman/hedo, i can see why they turned that down


Funny that everyone has jumped on this trade as it actually makes more sense then what Orlando is even offering... LOL... So answer this, who would you rather have moving forward:

Monta and a slight chance at keeping Howard

or

JJ and Anderson with no chance at keeping Howard

Kaman shouldn't even matter to the Magic as your only goal should be to put whatever you possibly can in place to keep Howard there. It should be obvious JJ and Anderson ain't accomplishing that. If you lose Howard, you are going to be rebuilding anyway... Monta is a much better trade chip than both Anderson and JJ (especially with his contract), so he can be moved even if Howard goes. That is not even close to being too much to give up to possibly keeping your franchise in championship contention for the next 5 years...

GS is not getting a good center without a trade going through Orlando. No one else is interested in helping GS facilitate that. No one is willing to take back salary from GS or Mil (Sjax). We have picks and youth that NOH wants.

GSW doesn't want SJax and Mil won't trade Bogut without trading SJax with him...thats where we come in...no one wants SJax but we're probably the most willing team who would take him considering Dwight wants him here

So the Magic have been talking to the Warriors all day. Good to know we aren't letting this opportunity slide by. Otis wants us to be the priority, not the back-up plan. It's all or nothing! I like it 8-)
